Panama’s Supreme Court Upholds Environmental Approval for Puerto Barú Port

On 27 October, Newsroom Panama reported that the Supreme Court’s Third Chamber upheld the environmental impact assessment for the proposed Puerto Barú port, a private development estimated at US$250–260 million. The decision dismissed a legal challenge to the project’s environmental approval; it does not establish a separate legal-services contract or guarantee that every future permit is complete.
